Especial telegram to the DIspa,ch.l


RALEIGH, n. c., August 20.--Your
correspondent had a special interview
this afternoon with John Robinson,
Commissioner of Agriculture, who has
just returned to his Office, after an ex-
tensive tour of the State. He has
looked at the crops carefully In the
past ten days and has made hundreds
Of inquiries. As a result OF his obser-
vations and information lie says cotton
is very seriously damaged on all light
lands. Estimates Of the crop will by
this be considerably reduced. Cotton
on such lands is turning yellow. Ga
stiff, rocky land cotton is not injured,
and the crop will be exceptionally fine.
The corn crop will be the finest ever
made in the State. The tobacco crop
will in amount fall perhaps one
third below the average, but the
quality is far higher than the
average. Cures are good so far
Many specimens OF the new crop were
shown at the tobacco convention at
Morehead City, which were OF marked
excellence, and the high quality of the
crop was commented on by growers
and dealers. The crop of peas, Com
missioner Robinson says, is four times
as large as any before planted, and this
he considers gratifying. Peas are grow
ing luxuriously from the coast to the
mountains. The Commissioner says
that the increase of interest in agricul
tural matters is remarkable. Farmers
are holding meetings and institutes,
and the attendance is large. he is in
formed that large crops of small grain
will be sown in the autumn.
